Yields4 Servings
Prep Time15 minsCook Time20 minsTotal Time35 mins
For the pie crust
 150 buckwheat flour
 50 buckwheat flour
 8 olive oil
 8 of water
 ½ salt
For the topping
 2 pears
 1 handful of pine nuts
For the spinach pesto
 100 fresh spinach leaves
 50 almond powder
 5 water
 2 Olive oil
 salt pepper
Directions
1

Start by preparing the pie crust. Mix the two flours and the salt in a mixing bowl or in the bowl of a food processor.

2

Add the oil and then the water while kneading. Form a ball of smooth dough and place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before rolling it out between two sheets of parchment paper.

3

Preheat your oven to 200 °C.

4

Prepare the spinach pesto by placing the rinsed spinach leaves, almond powder, water, and olive oil into a blender or mini chopper. Blend until smooth.

5

Add almond flour if it's too liquid or water if it's too thick. It should have the consistency of a fairly thick batter. Season with salt and pepper.

6

Line the greased tartlet molds with the dough. Prick the dough with a fork.

7

Spread the spinach pesto in the molds.

8

Peel the pears, remove the core, and slice them into thin pieces. Place the slices of pears on the pesto.

9

Sprinkle the pine nuts and place in the oven for about 15-20 minutes.

10

To finish, enjoy hot or warm. Vegetarians and/or those who tolerate cheese can let slices of blue cheese or goat cheese melt on top after taking it out of the oven. Serve with a salad.
